MAKING THE LEAP FROM "NOW WHAT?" TO "WHY NOT?!"
The 5 FROGS® Transformation Journal—a powerful tool designed to guide you through your transformation journey towards greater resilience.
It's here to help you navigate those murky waters with grace, courage, and a touch of froggy wisdom.

My own unexpected life shift as well as my work with leaders and organizations showed me this pattern.
-
F: FREAKING OUT. Life as I’d known it had fallen apart. I was at a fork-in-the-road. I was freaking out and wanted it to fall back together asap.
-
R: REFLECTING AND RESPONSIBILITY. As I took on new responsibilities as a single mom and provider, I reflected on one key question—now what? How was I going to manage this disorienting event, what was my responsibility in getting here, and what choices would I need to make now?
-
O: Over time, I was slowly but surely OVERCOMING OBSTACLES.
-
G: GROWING. Despite myself and my circumstances, I was GROWING—in small and big ways.
-
S: SOVEREIGN SELF. And here’s the thing—none of the growth had to do with a prince. There was no magical kiss or crown—just me, crowning a royal, more resilient version of myself—a stronger, evolved, expanded, transformed version of myself.
